Narrowed it down between 2 exhausts

Alright so I've managed to narrow it down to two exhausts. Can I get everyones honest opinion. ExoticSpeed R1-T or Greddy SE.

ExoticSpeed R1-T sounds a little bit deeper but greddy seems to sound a bit meaner at higher RPMS. Done a youtube search and just can't decide.

GREDDY! Exotic Speed is not very good quality or fitment.

Both are pretty good exhausts it's hard to tell.

IMO, the best exhaust is the Racing Beat REV8, if you haven't checked that out yet, there's a couple of videos on youtube.

So the verdict has it. Greddy SE it is. Anyone on here shipped a complete exhaust system to APO before or know how long it's going to take?

I got the GReddy SE.... never looked back at that purchase once.... the tips still give me butterflys everytime I see them, if they're clean and shined up that is.... With the stock cat it sounds PERFECT! Roars at high rpm and can be kept relatively quiet when you want it to be. I've had nothing but compliments about the sound and looks of this system... definitely a great buy. Shipping will all depend where you order it from... mine came from FL to Canada in about a week.

I had the dealer install my GReddy SE when I was getting my engine replaced.(last week) They said it was by far the best exhaust offered for the RX8. Furthermore they said the fitment was as good as stock. Sounds great too!!!!

greddy se all the way. I love mine. It has a nice sound at low rpms, not too loud attracts good attention and doesn't attract bad attention. It sounds downright amazing at high rpms. Plus amazing fitment. Oh and did I mention the sexy tips? I polish mine all the time and they look exactly how they did when I bought it almost a year ago.

Is the Greddy SE louder than the SP2? or is the SE pretty much just the replacement for the SP2? I have an SP2 and am planning on getting a midpipe soon because with the stock cat, it's still too quiet for me.

Lol, I've got the opposite intentions. SR Motorsport + SP-2 = wicked loud. Stock + SP-2 = loud. Too bad you're not closer, I'd sell you the SR midpipe which would do the trick. (I want to build up a 2xmetal cat system + something quieter than an SP-2). From other's comments the SP-2 is louder than the SE, but that should be confirmed by someone who knows from direct experience.

I loved my SP2. When i put my exoticspeed racepipe in (one resonator) it was perfect for me. I've got videos up somewhere.

what dual resonated midpipe do you have? racing beat? Im considering getting that or the BHR single resonated mid pipe. Supposedly with BHR's mid pipe you dont get the raspy sound from the packing in the resonator. You should post a vid on youtube of that combo so I can hear it
